Well, they have cruise missiles and if they’ve worked at getting their warheads down to size they could equip their Kilo-class submarines with nuke cruise missiles. They have been rather focused on enrichment which lends one to believe they trying to get the warheads as small as possible.
Thank you senator for saying what needs to be said while others seek to appease illegal aliens.
A good-sized fishing boat would work well.
Agreed. Just stick a Scud on a fishing boat or garbage scow owned by some Liberian or Panamanian front company, and you pass under the radar (literally and figuratively).
I am, however, far more worried about the Ragheads exploding such nukes 150-250 miles up and destroying our electrical and digital infrastructure via EMP. That'd kill far, far more people (up to 90% of the population within a year due to starvation, disease and fighting over food, etc.) than directly nuking a city, and would have the added advantage of destroying us as a power (let alone a superpower) forever. EMP is the ultimate in assymetric warfare.
Iran and Islam kill each other without hesitation, why would they care about Democrats.
Heck. . .ship it in a CONEX. . . they never get inspected.
For a bonus, surround it with mildly radioactive ore, make it into a dirty bomb.
I’m sure the Iranians, and likely the Chinese (actually, ESPECIALLY the Chinese. . .) have thought of this.
As for losing NYC and/or LA . . . . that’s almost a feature, not a bug. . .
Just what I was thinking. The Marxist Kenyan as well as Bubba Clinton held more fundraisers in New York city than any other city in the country. The Marxist Kenyan for example last election was making trips every week to NYC, sometimes twice a week. Oh and he would always come during rush hour, evidently in a display of power. 9am in the morning or 5pm in the afternoon. Never 12 noon or 5am, no it always had to be directly at the height of rush hour. The best is when horse mutant Sarah Jessica Parker held a fundraiser for the Marxist Kenyan on a Friday at 5pm at the Plaza hotel which is on a main street to the 59th street bridge. I’ve heard people were stuck all night in their cars trying to get home, that’s how bad the traffic was. But you know, F ‘em. They think it’s funny to keep voting for Marxist dirtbags, then let them eat it. They just elected a hardcore Marxist as Mayor - Bill de Blasio aka Warren Wilhelm so to hell with them.
Cruz is stating what’s obvious to everyone except give-peace-a-chance liberals.
Might I recommend a city on the Potomac?
But they have container shipping technology. Hell, they could even smuggle one over the border from Mexico through a tunnel.
If a nuke was detonated in a USA city would the perp likely be a country like Iran knowing it would be anihilated? Or would it be due to deception like the Reichstag fire, and a wanabee dictator, and those wanting an excuse to impose martial law and disarm Americans?
Maybe I’ve become overly cynical in my old age of the motives of our rulers and others who claim to serve us while dragging us off to costly war to democratize those who don’t want democratized.
FYI...from another article....
Like other Republicans, Cruz heard dangerous suggestions of presidential power grabbing. But he did identify two areas of potential common ground.
He was intrigued by the MyRA that Obama described as a new savings bond that encourages folks to build a nest egg. Depending on the details, Cruz said, he might be a supporter, because he likes the idea of empowering Americans to build wealth and become independent.
He also liked hearing Obama talk up the idea of streamlining federal red tape.
Thats something Republicans would be eager to work with him to do, he said, though hes used that rhetoric before and the record of the administration for the last five years has been increasing regulations, hammering small businesses and killing jobs.
Obama could start, he said, by approving the long-sought Keystone XL pipeline, which would bring oil from the tar sands of Canada to refineries along the Gulf Coast of Texas. The only reason we arent have 10s of thousands of high paying jobs right now is because President Obama is blocking it, he said.
Side bar, anyone know how "far out" the United States is sweeping for radiological signs? What if a shipping container came in from the gulf? Last I heard / read the obama administration had shut down our southern defense monitoring.
Iran attacks, One Boomer Sub will launch all her rockets and obliterate every major city in Iran, It will become a forgotten, Lost Civilization overnight. Maybe we will take out North Korean as well for helping out. I believe we should launch two strikes—one attack, then another in 48 hours to target any places we missed.
No one knows how an EMP explosion would work—would it really take out a whole section of the nation or would it be spotty—some with power, some without. Would it be a return to the 19th Century? Also, what about our ships at sea and subs? Would they launch at any attacker—we would know from where it came and blast with H-Bombs any nation that attacked us—maybe take out others as well. We have B-52s, B-1s and all sorts of rockets. I would doubt if any nation would risk the fall out of such an attack. Iran would simply ceast to exist—maybe take out Pakistan and North Korea to boot.
Another interesting point to consider (I have been trying to find some info on this) in regards to an EMP; lots and lots of older homes in the U.S. with old school plaster walls and ceiling. Inside that plaster is metal mesh; kind of like a Faraday cage.
You know I really wish I could believe that. At one time I would have agreed whole heartedly. Why do I now think that we would try to talk to the attackers. Maybe pay them not to do it again. Apologize for something.
Can you tell I don’t trust anyone or anything associated with this regime?
How much does Israel have?
Enough.
See, that’s what gets me about the left...
They think we have no right to prevent other countries from getting nukes, but the main and initial targets of those nukes will kill millions of their kind.
And the down side to Iran nuking these two places is what?
Is there anyway we could get them to throw in DC too.
Great, another thread for people like you who can wish for harm, death and destruction of other Americans...
Brilliant...
